the past two days have been insane. i am so glad it is friday. how about you? do you have plans? i have anxiously been awaiting the arrival of my baby niece or nephew- it will be any day now! these postcards are terrific! “you’re a star” comes from another local street artist SRMND. the artist posts up the cutest little salamanders with the best words of love to accompany them- it just makes you happy to find […]

a few weeks ago, i wrote a post sharing a postcard local street artist, bort sent in (you can see it here). lucky enough for me, she included her contact and agreed to an email interview. i love, love, love her work. so, without further ado, i am thrilled to shed a little light on bort. first off, tell us about yourself. how did you get into street art? I’m Bort. When I came out as trans [art] acted as something […]

today is my best friend’s birthday. that means it’s a good day. she doesn’t want people to wish her a happy birthday, but instead give a compliment to someone you haven’t talked to in awhile, or someone you know that needs some kinds words in their life. and in lieu of gift, a donation made to her favorite comedy troupe, Comedia A Go-Go’s gofundme campaign. this is the kind of fabulous she is. and because of what sort of special day […]

was moved to write a super quick post today after i spotted this Good Luck Buddha on s lamar after finally dropping off my mountain pile of goodwill stuff. i love his placement. apparently this wasn’t the original spot for it, but it fell, so he made good use of this space. happy accident if you ask me! the red, purple and happy Buddha face make me smile with composition satisfaction. what do you think? with love, as always, faith […]

last year, i wrote about a street art find on telephone poles (you can see the original post here). i had been on a lady date with my best friend, and as we walked down S 1st, i found each pole had been adorned by a photo and/or a relic. i was fascinated by all the little altars, lining the street. over the months, i’ve seen a few other pieces in other parts of town, but the majority of them, have […]

Driving around the other day, I ran across this wonderful piece of street art (by local street artist, Truth), on Springdale, just north of 51st Street (you can see the map here). Have you seen any of Truth’s work? I love his simple lines and poignant imagery. You can see his work around town (you know it by his signature) and you can see a gallery of his work on his website here Thank you, Truth, for this beautiful imagery […]

You know the exciting news I’ve been teasing you with? Well… it’s finally time to share! We were recently included in a local zine, Analogue. If you see the zine around town (I’ve dropped a bunch off around town and I know they have too!), pick one up. Not only is WWLA featured with postcard, it is chock full of local art and poetry. In fact, you can submit your own art, poetry, reviews, photos, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO SEND […]

I love walking around town and finding art in unexpected places. Like the piece on this telephone pole (much like the South 1st treasures I found). Walking back to my car after a stroll down South Congress, I was looking up admiring the trees lining James Street (the street the runs between Jos and The Snack Bar), when I happen to see this lovers telephone affixed to the pole. (Thankfully it was windy enough to make the rusted, unassuming cans […]

I started my past weekend with a lady date with my best friend, by indulging our sweet teeth. We met at Dolce Neve on South 1st and had gelato for dinner. (Please go – the charm of the old home that houses Dolce Neve and the charm of the staff is just as deliciously sweet as their gelato). After feasting and catching up, we took a stroll down S 1st, in vain efforts to justify our dessert dinner (really, totally […]

And, so my most favorite piece I found at EAST ( but isn’t necessarily “sanctioned….”) was this gem. I found it on the way back to my car, unassumingly laying in wait for me to find it. My friend and EAST adventurer laughed and said “it’s like a third sense for you” as I photographed my street art find (I believe Reflection of Light was the artist). I do rather like the term street art aficionado… Advertisements
